PAC REPORT/ALIGNMENTS
It goes without saying that the PAC report tabled in parliament and voted to be implemented should come as a relief and as a right direction in the fight against graft in this country. But we should not celebrate just yet as the PAC is nothing but a toothless dog whose work one may say is to bark but never bite.
You may have realised that no action is to be taken unless some of those to be investigated and those partly blamed for the scandal 'approve' their own crucification to put it that way. After all, all the report achieved in doing is recommending the investigation of the people involved, and the preparation of a report within two months.
The affairs of the people to be looked into are the issue that lends non credence to the seriousness of the gov on the whole issue. One would imagine that all thosse to be investigated are to resign and let the due process take plce but alas! this is Kenya. You do not expect to see the VP doing so in the near future, nor Mr Muthaura or Wako. Another catch is that before any public servant gives evidence to the commmitee the same president who was accused of laxity while being fully informed of the going ons by Githongo will be the one to give permission to them to appear before the commitee as they are barred to do so what will prevent him from not doing so and if he does so what will prevent him from selectively giving permission to a few.
Also who would give evidence agains his boss and at the same time expect not be victimised as in the case of Muthaura ( He is the chief of all civil servants after all).
One would only wait to see what will transpire in the next two months.
Now to one marriage of ODM and LDP. Writings are on the walls of a possible fall out as a result of the eminent by election in the five areas that lost their Mps in the Marsabit tragedy. I do not see any possibility of either Kanu ceceding its claim from the seats in favour of ana ODM candidatefor after all one Paddy Ahenda is not an ODM Mp but an LDP one so here i predict the beginning of the end for this alliance.
signing off for now and a belated kudos for all those nominated for the Kaybees please cast your votes for in the words of one Patrick Lumumba "those who fail to vote, vote nevertheless by not voting"
